What happens when a top-tier radiation oncologist walks away from a thriving career to pursue a deeper truth in healing?

In this powerful and profoundly moving conversation, Dr. Nasha Winters is joined by Dr. Katie Deming, a board-certified radiation oncologist, TEDx speaker, and founder of Make Mary, a line of healing garments for women with cancer. Together, they dive into the intersection of science, spirit, and systems—and the life-altering experiences that led Dr. Deming to redefine what it truly means to heal.

Dr. Deming shares her transformational journey from conventional medicine into holistic healing after a shared-death experience cracked open her worldview. She reflects on the power of intuitive knowing, trauma’s role in disease, and the importance of language in cancer care—including her deep discomfort with the word “survivor” and the problematic battle metaphors often used in oncology.

This is a heartfelt, hopeful episode that reminds us healing is possible—not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually.

In This Episode, You'll Learn:

• How a shared-death experience inspired Dr. Deming to leave Western medicine

• Why words like “survivor” can unintentionally harm patients—and what to say instead

• The profound role of emotional trauma and the nervous system in chronic disease

• How German New Medicine and Psych-K inform her new model of care

• The transformational potential of prolonged water fasting, not just physically but spiritually

What if the prescription for better health started in the soil—not the pharmacy?

In this thought-provoking episode, Dr. Nasha Winters sits down with Neil Smith, regenerative agriculture advisor, farmer, and co-founder of the Grow blockchain project (kohima.io). With decades of hands-on experience and a mission rooted in abundance, Neil is helping farmers—and communities—redefine what it means to heal, from the land up.

From soil remediation to landscape restoration, and from decentralized systems to local food sovereignty, Neil shares how Web3 technologies are creating new opportunities for farmers to reclaim their data, their profits, and their purpose. It’s a conversation about systems thinking, global health, and why healthy soil is the most overlooked cornerstone of public wellness.

🔑 What You’ll Learn:

• Why Neil believes regenerative agriculture is a “system of systems” that holds the key to true health and resilience.

• How blockchain and decentralization are empowering farmers to own their data and transform the food supply chain.

• The emotional and financial obstacles traditional farmers face—and how Neil guides them through change with compassion and strategy.

• Why the food you eat is only as good as the soil it came from.

• The broken narratives around “organic” and “regenerative” labeling.

• The link between glyphosate, public health decline, and deceptive supply chains.

• Transitioning from conventional to regenerative farming without losing your livelihood.

• Localizing food economies through decentralization.

In this powerful and information-rich episode, Dr. Nasha Winters sits down with detox expert and RemedyLink founder Spencer Feldman to unravel the complexities of modern toxicity and detoxification. With over 20 years of experience in formulating novel detox protocols and delivery systems, Spencer shares a science-backed, deeply nuanced approach to helping the body eliminate harmful substances—ranging from heavy metals and forever chemicals to spike protein remnants and gadolinium toxicity.

What starts as a discussion about the need for detoxification in our increasingly toxic world evolves into a compelling breakdown of how detox pathways really function, why certain therapies fail, and how to navigate these challenges using precise, phase-based support. Plus, Spencer gives us a rare look into his off-grid lifestyle, revealing the daily rituals and biohacks he uses to optimize his health and circadian rhythm.

🎧 In This Episode:

• Why "we don’t need to detox" is a dangerously outdated myth

• The three phases of detoxification — and why they must work in harmony

• How fat-soluble toxins, microplastics, and “forever chemicals” get stuck in the body

• A new model of chelation: matching metal types with proper chelators (hard vs. soft metals)

• Spencer’s phase-based detox protocol using DOTA, MIADMSA, and more

• The dangers of IV chelation and how new delivery methods are safer and more effective

• Using detox diagnostically to assess toxic load

• A deep dive into spike protein exposure: shedding, testing, and recovery strategies

• Protocols for people with gadolinium toxicity, post-MRI injury, and kidney vulnerability

• UV light therapy, prion mop-up, immune rebalancing, and stealth infections

This episode is a must-listen for anyone dealing with chronic illness, environmental toxicity, long COVID, cancer recovery, autoimmune disorders—or anyone seeking a smarter, safer, and more personalized approach to detox.

🧠 About Our Guest:

Spencer Feldman is the founder of RemedyLink, a company dedicated to developing cutting-edge detoxification products and protocols. With a background in biochemistry and decades of hands-on research, Spencer’s formulations have helped thousands safely eliminate toxic burdens from their body. He lives off-grid on 100 acres, practicing what he preaches when it comes to natural living and bioresonance with nature.

What if we’ve been looking at cancer all wrong?

In this riveting episode, Dr. Nasha Winters welcomes Dr. Robert Nagourney—renegade oncologist, cancer biologist, and trailblazer in functional profiling and metabolomics. For over 30 years, Dr. Nagourney has challenged the dogma of protocol-based oncology, focusing instead on what truly matters: how the patient's biology responds to treatment.

Together, they unpack why cancer isn't just a problem of too much growth, but rather too little death, and how shifting our focus to metabolic function could radically transform cancer care—from diagnosis through remission and prevention.

This is a deeply personal and highly technical conversation filled with clinical wisdom, paradigm-shifting insights, and genuine hope for the future of oncology.

Key Takeaways:

• Why cancer is not primarily a growth disease, but a failure of cell death.

• The real meaning of “personalized medicine”—and how most current approaches miss the mark.

• What “functional profiling” is and how it doubles treatment response rates in patients.

• How Dr. Nagourney uses tissue assays to select therapies with precision—before gene panels even return results.

• What metabolomics is, and why it’s the next frontier in both early detection and prevention.

• The difference between apoptosis and programmed cell death—and why that nuance matters.

• What it means to quantify life and how Dr. Nagourney’s new blood-based testing could identify cancer risk before symptoms ever arise.
